You don’t know me!
You think you do, but actually you don’t!
You think you know how to make me happy, but you don’t!
You think you know what makes me sad, but you don’t!
You think you know how to make me smile, but you don’t!
You think you know how to explain what I do to other people, but you don’t!
You think you know how to explain what I do to other people, but you don’t!
You think you know who I love, but you don’t!
You think you know my family, but you don’t!
You think that you know the reason why I write, but you don’t!
You think you know the reason why I can’t express my feelings to you, but you don’t!
You think you know the reason why I don’t allow myself to get mad, but you don’t!
You think you know why I’m scared to love you, but you don’t!
You think you know the reason why I sing, but you don’t!
You think you know how to make me stop crying, but you don’t!
You think you know how to explain me, but you don’t!
You think you know so much about me, but you don’t!
Nobody does!
Only I know these things!
You never tried to find out an you never will!
You try to make since of all the things I say, but you can’t!
You think you know me, but you really don’t!
What you see is what I let you see, and I don’t let you see the real me!
